Kadaram Kondan (கடாரம் கொண்டான்)

'This is RJ Renuka greeting our Malaysian listeners...

and Tamils worldwide.'

'Before playing your favourite music, here's important news for today.'

'Just two more days for the prestigious, International Art Festival, in Malaysia.'

'Conqueror of Kadaram'

'Now, some important information for tourists.'

'It's the time of Ramadan and...'

'routine maintenance has been scheduled because of which...'

'the Petronas Twin Towers tour has been suspended for three days.'

'Don't worry. The tour will resume in three days.'

'Meanwhile, there are plenty of other sight-seeing options in Malaysia.'

'Before I share the list with you let's listen to this melodious song.'

'It's 7.45 pm. Here's to our evening with Ilaiyaraja's music.'

'You were listening to Isai Maalai. It's 12.45 am.'

'Time to sign off and say goodbye. Let's meet again in the morning.'

Change of plan.

Plan change?

Two men are chasing me.

Who are they?

I don't know. Meet me at the other end of the tunnel.

I'll be there.

No...no

Let's leave.

Give way. Please step aside.

Move away

Good. The baby is in the correct position.

Can we get a copy of the scan image?

Sure. I'll mail it along with the reports.

Okay!

I saw your test results.

So, this is your second visit. Right?

Yes, doctor.

We visited you the day after we landed in Malaysia.

The report says that her blood pressure is borderline.

Slightly higher than normal.

But, don't worry. Just be a little careful, Ok.

What does it mean in layman's terms?

It means you have to eat well and be a little careful. That's it.

Nothing to worry. Avoid physical activities.

Take plenty of rest.

Give her the medicines without fail.

Sure

Do you have elders at home to take care of you?

If there is no one tell him to take care of you.

One more thing. Avoid travel from now on.

That isn't a problem.

In the 10 days I've been here he's brought me only to your clinic.

So, how is KL?

How do you like your new job?

I joined work last week.

I haven't had such friendly chats with colleagues yet.

But, I'm sure I will.

They've given you a guesthouse. Right?

The guesthouse is amazing. You should drop in some time.

It's a very nice place. Isn't it?

Yes, doctor. It's a very nice place. Do come home.

Sure.

So, do you have any specific dates in mind?

We can fix it.

You know it. Right?

Any auspicious dates in mind?

No, doctor. Let it be natural.

Good. That's better.

So, until your next visit be responsible and take care of your girl.

Both the girls, Vasu.

- See you then. - Sure.

Thank you. Take care of yourself.

Thank you

You seem to be very friendly with the doctor.

How many times have you been here by yourself?

I was just being nice to get the image quickly.

She would've given it even without the flirting.

The car is here. Let's go.

Are we off to see the Twin Towers now?

In about a month the three of us can see it together.

"You're all that I need, for nothing more I pray."

"Dearest, I'll keep you safe, come what may."

"Every moment in your presence envelopes me with joy and fragrance."

"Even as I see you a thousand times every day"

"My heart yearns for more, I have no say."

"My beloved wife, you are my very life."

"The magic in your mesmerising eyes, change the hues of my days and nights."

"Life is short, my dear."

"Let's live it to the fullest, with love and cheer."

"Even if the earth splits into pieces,"

"I'll keep you safe till every worry ceases."

"Dear beloved wife you are the fragrance in my life."

"My beloved wife, you are my very life."

"When you walk, a shadow you won't cast."

"I'll take that in, no darkness will get past."

"No harm will come your way ever. Your face will wilt in sadness never."

"I will always lookout for you."

"There is nothing I have to look for beyond you."

"Dear beloved wife you are the fragrance in my life."

"My beloved wife, you are my very life."

We've finally settled down. Do you like this?

That's why I married you.

I meant the house.

- Hey, sorry. - It's Ok.

Sit down. Where are you going?

I'm feeling hungry.

But, you just ate.

That was your daughter. She ate her fill.

Now I am hungry.

Can I bring you milk? I have to be at work.

Don't bother. I'll manage.

Why?

Who will do it after you leave?

When I'm around I will do it

And when you aren't around?

That's why I go for a night shift.

What about the nights?

Who'll take care of your daughter then?

You'll do the job.

I'm here for your daughter. For me then?

I'll be at work, but, I'll be thinking of you all the time.

Nonsense. What can I do with thoughts?

Movie-like dialogues!

I work night shifts when both of you are asleep.

I'm back before you wake up.

As if she allows me to sleep at nights.

I'm a little scared, Vasu.

As the doctor said wish I had someone here.

Who do we have? I will have to apply for leave.

I've just joined work, you understand, don't you?

Don't you understand

That being alone at nights is difficult for me.

What should we do?

Seriously, should I ask for leave? For two months?

- That's a stupid idea. - What then?

Shall we call my mum?

Go ahead.

I must leave for work now. I'll try and come back soon.

What is it?

Nothing.

Didn't I tell you to call your mum.

It won't be right for me to make the call.

It'll be the same for me.

So, you won't talk to her.

I'll talk.

I want our loved ones with us. You know me.

Will she talk to me?

So, you are still angry?

Please Aatirah. Can we talk after I am back?

The supervisor gets angry if I'm late.

I'll go to the office and I'll see.

I'll give her a call.

Bye.

It's you. I thought it was the doctor.

I'm one too.

Where is your doctor?

He's gone to the Pediatric ward.

He'll be back soon.

If he asks for me tell him I left.

Isn't it wrong to take these outside and run your private clinic?

I agree it's wrong.

The poor folks near my home keep falling sick...

if we can't help them...

what's the point in having studied Medicine?

What did you say? Medicine...

You are making one mistake after another, sister.

Don't call me sister. Call me Kumudha.

Who is this? I don't see a name.

That's the accident case in bed three. Injury in the head and abdomen.

He's been sutured and is sedated. Monitor him.

Police?

The police brought him here.

We have to give them a call when he wakes up. Don't forget.

Okay

My phone doesn't work here.

There's no network coverage here. It's fairly good in that corner.

Where is she?

Doctor?

- Where is Kumudha? - She left.

How can she leave without informing me?

She said her duty hours were over.

She has to inform me.

How can I supervise all the wards?

Do I have 10 hands?

- What? - Nothing.

You too will have to inform me before you leave.

You can't just leave.

Doctor

Hello!

Hey, move.

He was gasping for breath. I was trying to...

What?

You have to send for me. You shouldn't be doing this.

I'll be answerable.

No one will question you.

He was wearing a white coat. So I thought he was a doctor.

Okay!

Can you tell us more about him?

I didn't pay attention.

He was gasping for breath. I was taking care of that.

I followed him to the corridor. But he was gone by then.

Anything about him?

No. It was a bike accident. No IDs on him.

The traffic police brought him in.

How is he now?
